Was just in Food Lion and they have pork butts on sale for .99 / lb. Haven't seen them priced that low there in a while. I didn't check to see when the sale ends, but I did pick up a couple since they were at a good price.
Yeah, where have you been recently anyway? I noticed you were MIA for about a month or so...packgrad said:Bell Tower Grey said:

I hate I missed this sale.

I think you could still post a couple of those pics here, couldn't you?packgrad said:TheStorm said:Yeah, where have you been recently anyway? I noticed you were MIA for about a month or so...packgrad said:Bell Tower Grey said:

Decided to take a break. Basketball team in turmoil, economy in turmoil, football slow season. Hit unsubscribe for a couple months as the place wasn't doing anything for me. Focus on things I enjoy.
Wish I had come back a little sooner as butts are back up to $2.29/# at the FL I stopped at in Cary. Almost rejoined a couple weeks ago just to post pics of the spread I smoked for a family reunion. Smoked a brisket, butt, ribs, chicken wings, jalapeño poppers. Went along with a buffet full of vegetables , a few pans of sister shuberts rolls, and a half dozen or so desserts. I cooked all the meats and a couple of the vegetables. Was a heck of a spread that turned out really good.
The outlet store is at the State Farmer's Market. Not a bad little place, but not the superstore in Pikeville.JocoPack said:
Not sure what the outlet store looks like but I keep a bag of their individually frozen pork steaks in the freezer. Put them in a skillet with some gravy and onions and you'll be on cloud 9
I've always wanted to make beer margaritas.Bell Tower Grey said:
Grilled tuna and shrimp skewers during the second intermission of the hockey game. Mrs. fixed oven roasted potatoes and broccoli as sides. Pitcher of beer margaritas to wash it down.
About time to give her that last gardening book.

Yes! I made 100. With practice, she will become a master gardener.Tootie4Pack said:Bell Tower Grey said:

That's 5 gardening book in two days. Was there a
Pop quiz last night ?
Sounds like a great family gathering with good food as a bonus. That all sounds delicious BTW.Bell Tower Grey said:
I got ribeyes and chops at the butcher yesterday morning. They will be over charcoal a little later today. Also got some fresh local sweet potatoes, and strawberries. Mrs. is baking the potatoes and fixing some type of spring salad with the strawberries in it.
Son and soon to be daughter-in-law are coming for dinner. He's bringing a bottle of Makers Mark Private Select that he got on their bourbon trail tour last summer; she is making a cheesecake and will fix a topping for it with some of the strawberries.
Right before it came off. Not sure if I will serve it sliced or chunky chopped. Have Scott's to sauce it, if necessary.Bell Tower Grey said:
Asked the butcher to cut a pork loin for me this morning. Came home with one just over 2 lbs, which is just right for us. Have it rubbed down with a bacon grease binder, and then coated with a mix of dalmatian and crushed red pepper. Will put it over a hickory / oak wood mix in just a little while.
I love charcoal as well. Last night we used the gas Weber for the ribeye and poppers. Today for the brats it will be charcoal for sure, need to figure out sides. Going to throw back a few as well.....a little slow this am after yesterday....lots of coffee this morning. At some point I need to start working on tailgating menus, want to try some new things this year.Sierrawolf said:
Got a new Weber Performer Deluxe and have been loving getting back to charcoal. Grillin up some wings tonight and throwing a couple back
Please provide more info (and pics if possible) of your new griddle. Interested in learning more about that.ncsupack1 said:
Been out of town all week due to work. Thinking of hitting the butcher up later. Also, got my new PitBoss tailgating griddle for races and football. Need to try it out.
